“Excellent tour in Tokyo”
Our Tokyo tour with Yoshi was everything that we expected and hoped for. Yoshi came to pick us up from our hotel and navigated us through the extensive metro system during the day. That was a good introduction to us as we were able to use the metro on our own the following few days. Yoshi took us to many important sites during our tour. He was very knowledgeable and even had written description of the history of each site we visited. We found the written descriptions very helpful as we both, my husband and I, are visual learners. As we visited several shrines, Yoshi introduced us to the local cultures by guiding us to act as locals. We really appreciated that. We were able to see a lot in 8 hours. The day was broken out by a lunch - the best sushi I have ever eaten. We had a great day and highly recommend Yoshi to anyone visiting Tokyo!
